A new glitch in Call of Duty: Warzone has made the popular battle royale unwinnable for some. The new glitch is causing some players to become invincible, which is putting some teams in an impossible situation where they are unable to kill their last enemy.
The Warzone glitch makes it so that some players can approach and attack their enemies without getting killed themselves, similar to a glitch in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Reddit user RaviVora randmoly encountered the glitch and shared a video of it via the game’s subreddit. The glitch put RaviVora’s team in a frustrating situation, as there was no way to take first place with an unkillable enemy on the map.
This isn’t the first major glitch that Warzone players have had to deal with since the game’s release last month. Earlier this month, a Reddit user discovered and posted a glitch that allows players to hide in walls. There have been calls from the community for Infinity Ward to address both the wall glitch and the newer invincibility glitch, especially as the latter glitch makes some games unwinnable. Neither glitch has been fixed yet.
On April 13, Infinity Ward announced that it had banned 70,000 players for cheating in Warzone. The developer announced further updates will be coming to the game’s security and in-game reporting systems. Although the exact conditions for creating the invincibility glitch are unknown as of now, some players believe that respawning in the Gulag in a certain way can trigger the glitch.
Although it doesn’t look like anyone has created a method of manipulating the glitch, some users in RaviVora’s Reddit thread have claimed to also have encountered invincible enemies in their games. If anyone were to learn how to replicate invincibility, however, it would likely get them banned by Infinity Ward due to the developer’s zero-tolerance policy for cheating. Abusing a glitch to win a few matches and getting banned soon after wouldn’t be worth it.
But as long as the glitch exists in-game, random players may still be affected by it and get locked into impossible matches. Regardless, players can hope that the community will continue to report bugs in Warzone and display sportsmanship and skill over cheating. The player community seems to be mostly positive and focused on sharing the enjoyment of a great game, which has even led to humorous moments like one player sparing their downed enemy with a thumbs-up. Hopefully Infinity Ward will fix the glitch soon, and let players get back to their hard-earned wins.
Call of Duty: Warzone was released on March 10, 2020 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
